The present application is a divisional application of Ser. No. 207,957, filed Dec. 14, 1971, now U.S. Pat. No. 3,878,224, and which claims the priority of Japanese application Nos. 45-115868, filed Dec. 23, 1970, 46-81083 filed Oct. 14, 1971, 46-82349 filed Oct. 18, 1971, and 46-84803 filed Oct. 26, 1971.
This invention relates to herbicides particularly to herbicides that contain as active ingredient N-substituted-Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimides. The invention also relates to said N-substituted Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimides.
The method of manufacture and physical properties of some N-substituted-tetrahydrophthalimides are known in the art. For example, it has been reported in Berichte der Deutschen Chemischen Gesellschaft 1903 pp. 996-1007 that N-substituted-Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimides were obtained by heating Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalic anhydride and primary amine in an alcoholic solution. Reference is made to physical properties such as crystal form, melting point and the like with regard to N-phenyl-Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimide, N-(p-hydroxyphenyl)-Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimide, N-(p-methoxyphenyl)-Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimide and N-(p-ethoxyphenyl)-Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimide. This report is referred to in Chemisches Zentralblatt 1906, II, pp. 876-877.
It should be understood that the disclosure in said prior publications is limited only to the method of manufacture and physical properties of specific N-substituted-Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimides.
It is, therefore, an object of this invention to provide improved herbicides containing as active ingredient the N-substituted-Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimide derivative.
Another object of this invention is to provide novel N-substituted-Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimide derivatives, which exhibit excellent herbicidal effect.
In accordance with the present invention there is provided a herbicide containing as active ingredient at least one N-substituted-Δ 1 -tetrahydrophthalimide, which is represented by the general formula ##EQU2## in which R denotes an aryl group or an aralkyl group. The benzene ring of the aryl or aralkyl group may contain one to five substituents selected from the group consisting of halogen, hydroxyl-, nitro-, cyano-, thiocyano-, carboxyl-, haloalkyl-, lower alkyl-, lower alkoxyl-, lower alkylthio-, phenyl and --O--CH2 A in which A denotes a phenyl, naphthyl, or phenyl substituted by at least one member selected from the group consisting of halogen, nitro, lower alkyl, and lower alkoxyl.
The phthalimide derivatives represented by the said general formula may be divided into three groups of compounds as follows:
1. Compounds represented by the formula ##EQU3## in which X is phenyl, naphthyl or phenyl substituted by at least one member selected from the group consisting of halogen, hydroxyl, nitro cyano, thiocyano, carboxyl, haloalkyl, lower alkyl, lower alkoxyl, lower alkylthio, and phenyl.
2. Compounds represented by the general formula ##EQU4## in which Y is phenyl, naphthyl, or phenyl substituted by at least one member selected from the group consisting of halogen, nitro, lower alkyl, and lower alkoxyl.
3. Compounds represented by the general formula ##SPC2##
in which Z is phenyl, naphthyl, or phenyl substituted by at least one member selected from the group consisting of halogen, nitro, lower alkyl, and lower alkoxyl.
The imides represented by the formula (I) may be manufactured by the method disclosed in the aforesaid Berichte reference in which Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalic anhydride and aniline or a derivative thereof are heated in an alcoholic solution. However, such method is not practical from a commercial view point because it affords of a low yield of the product imides.
This problem is solved by the present invention in accordance with which the imides represented by the formula (I) are commercially produced in a higher yield by reacting Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalic anhydride with an aryl amine in the presence of lower fatty acids.
Examples of such lower fatty acids include acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid. Acetic acid is generally preferred. No limits are set with respect to the amount of lower fatty acid employed. Although it is effective even in a small amount, it usually is used in an amount equivalent to 0.1 to 20.0 times the weight of Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalic anhydride. The reaction is facilitated by heating at a temperature in the range 40°-200°C, preferably 50°-150°C. A reaction solvent inert to the reaction, such as for example, acetone, dioxane, methyl ethyl ketone, tetrahydrofuran, carbon tetrachloride, benzene, toluene, xylene etc., may be used. Acid catalyst or dehydrating agent may also be used.
The imides represented by the formula (II) are novel and have never been referred to in prior publications. The imides may be manufactured by a method analogous to that which is employed for manufacturing the compounds of the formula (I) which method comprises reacting Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalic anhydride with aralkyl amine as follows: ##SPC3##
in which Y is as previously defined with regard to the formula (II).
The reaction takes place with or without solvent under heating for one to five hours. Preferred solvents include a lower fatty acid, for example, acetic acid or propionic acid, or an alcohol, for example, methanol or ethanol.
The imides represented by the formula (II) may also be manufactured by reacting Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimide resulting from the reaction between Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalic anhydride and urea with aralkyl halide as follows: ##SPC4##
in which Y has the same meaning as in the formula (II) and Hal denotes halogen atom.
The reaction is carried out in a suitable solvent containing a basic substance, and conveniently at a temperature in the range of 50°-150°C. Examples of the solvents include benzene, toluene, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran and carbon tetrachloride. Examples of suitable basic substances include inorganic or organic bases, for example, sodium bicarbonate, potassium carbonate, or pyridine, quinoline, dimethylaniline and triethylamine.
The imides represented by the formula (III) are also novel and have never been referred to in prior publications. These imides may be manufactured by reaction N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalimide resulting from the reaction between Δ1 -tetrahydrophthalic anhydride and 4-aminophenol or a salt of said tetrahydrophthalimide, for example, potassium-, sodium-, ammonium-, or amine salt, with an aralkyl halide as represented by the following formula: ##SPC5##
in which M is hydrogen, alkali metal, an ammonium group or an amine residue, Z is as defined with regard to the formula (III), and Hal denotes halogen atom.
The reaction takes place in a suitable solvent containing a basic compound, and advantageously under heating at a temperature in the range of 50°-150°C. As regards the solvent and basic compound, those referred to in the manufacturing method of the compounds of the formula (II) may be employed.
Examples of the method for manufacturing the compounds represented by the formulae (I), (II) and (III) are as follows:

The imides indicated in the above tables may be employed for herbicidal purposes as is. They are, however, normally used in the form of a dilution in an inert liquid or solid. If desired a surfactant or the like may be added to the imides for use in the form of dust, wettable powder, emulsion or granules. Other substances may be incorporated with the imides, such as for example fertilizers, fungicides, insecticides, nematocides, synergistic herbicides, or other types of herbicides and plant growth regulants.
A great variety of liquids may be employed as carriers for the herbicides of the instant invention. Examples of such liquids include organic liquids such as hydrocarbons, for example, kerosene, benzene and xylene; halogenated hydrocarbons, for example, chlorobenzene and dichloroethylene; alcohols and acetone. Examples of solid carriers include bentonite, kaolin, clay, talc, Japanese acid clay, diatomaceous earth, silica sand and calcium carbonate.
Examples of suitable surfactants include alkylbenzene sulphonate, lignin sulphonate, higher alcohol sulphates, polyoxyethylene fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters, dialkylsulphosuccinate and alkyltrimethylammonium chloride.
Examples of formulations containing the herbicides of the present invention are as follows:
5 parts by weight of the compound No. 3 of Table I were thoroughly mixed with 95 parts by weight of clay to give a dust containing 5% of active ingredient.
50 parts by weight of the compound No. 62 of Table I were thoroughly mixed with 45 parts by weight of diatomaceous earth and 5 parts by weight of "Solpole 8070" (tradename of a surfactant manufactured by Toho Chemical Industries Limited, of Japan) to obtain a wettable powder containing 50% of active ingredient, which was diluted with water to a desired concentration for spraying.
30 parts by weight of compound No. 39 of Table I were dissolved in a mixture of 35 parts by weight of toluene and 30 parts by weight of ethanol, and 5 parts by weight of "Solpole 800 A" (tradename of a surfactant manufactured by Toho Chemical Industries Limited, of Japan) were added thereto to form a solution containing 30% of active ingredient. The solution was diluted with water to produce an emulsion having a desired concentration for use as a spray.
A mixture of 6 parts by weight of the compound No. 27 of Table I, 25 parts by weight of bentonite, 50 parts by weight of talc, 16 parts by weight of white carbon and 3 parts by weight of "Solpole 9266" (tradename of a surfactant manufactured by Toho Chemical Industries Ltd., of Japan) was thoroughly kneaded together with water in an amount corresponding to 18% of the mixture by means of a kneading machine and granulated by means of a granulator provided with a 8 mm-mesh screen. The granules were dried at 60°C for 2 hours to give a final product containing 6% of active ingredient. This product was scattered over weeds by means of a suitable device.
Although the herbicides of the present invention may be used for foliar treatment, they are particularly suitable for soil treatment.
The amount of herbicides used is preferably but not in a limitative sense in the range of 3-50 g per are. The herbicides of the present invention are activated by sunshine to give better herbicidal effect. This is illustrated in the following examples 10 and 11 in which in the presence of sunshine it was determined that the amount of herbicide used could be reduced to 3 to 20 g per are to produce adequate herbicidal effect.
The invention will now be illustrated with reference to some embodiments in which the numbers of the compounds correspond to those in Tables I-1, I-2 and I-3. It should be noted that examples 1 to 9 were carried out in a green house whereas examples 10 and 11 were carried out outdoors.
A Wagner pot of 1/2000 are was filled with "paddy" soil, and an amount of water was added to the soil and kneaded thoroughly. Evenly spread over the surface of the pot was a prescribed amount of paddy soil in which undesirable weeds such as toothcup (Rotala indica Koehne) and millet (Echinochloa Crus-galli) were apt to grow. Three-leafed paddy rice seedlings were transplanted in the pot and kept in the paddy field state for 7 days. An aqueous suspension of the wettable powder of the compounds indicated in the following table was sprayed over the water surface of the pot. 25 days later, the growth of the said grasses was compared with the non-treated plot. The results are shown in the following Table 2 in which the herbicidal effect (sprouting-inhibiting effect) on the grasses was evaluated and expressed by the figures 0 to 5 according to the following scale:

A Wagner pot of 1/5000 are was filled with farm soil and seeded with rice, soya bean and Indian corn 2 to 3 cm deep. Seeds of crabgrass (Digitoria ads cendens Henr) were sowed in the upper layer of the soil. The compounds of the following table were formulated as an aqueous suspension of wettable powder and sprayed on the soil layer. The rate of spray applied was such that an application rate of 10 g and 20 g of active ingredient per are was evaluated. 25 days later, the fresh weight of survival crabgrass was determined and compared with that of the non-treated plot in per cent. Concurrently, the phytotoxicity on rice, soya bean and Indian corn was also investigated. The results are shown in the following table in which the assigned figures 0 to 5 are as defined in Example 1.

Beakers made of polyethylene were filled with upland field soil and seeded separately with millet, crabgrass, and radish. When the millet and crabgrass grew to the two- to three-leafed stage and the radish to the 1st leaf stage, the compounds of the following table, formulated as emulsions diluted with water were applied to the said plants in an amount of 10 l of the liquor per are. Concentrations of the active ingredient in the liquor of 0.25% and 0.5%, were evaluated respectively. 15 days after the treatment, the herbicidal effect was investigated in the same manner as described in example 3. The results are set forth in the following Table 9.

A upland field composed of Volcanic ash soil was seeded with soyabean. Immediately thereafter and before the sprouting of undesirable weeds, an aqueous suspension of wettable powder of compound No. 5 of table 1 was applied to the soil surface of the field. After 40 days standing, investigation was conducted with regard to the growth of undesirable weeds and the phytotoxicity of the compound to the soyabeam. For the sake of comparison, similar experiments were carried out, using Simazine.

Paddy rice seedlings were transplanted in a paddy field of clay loam. 7 days later, when the weeds including graminous and broadleaf species were in the 1st-leaf stage, an aqueous suspension of wettable powder of compound No. 54 in table I-3 was applied to the soil of the paddy field. After 30 days standing in the natural state, the growth of and the chemical damage incurred by the paddy rice were investigated. For the sake of comparison, similar experiments were carried out with Nip.
